Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees Def Leppard and Goo Goo Dolls perform together, with special guests The Struts, in a fundraiser for City of Hope.
Def Leppard and Goo Goo Dolls are playing together at the Spectrum Center on Wednesday, June 30, 2027, with The Struts opening the bill. Both headliners are Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees, so it's a double bill of two bands that have spent decades on the radio.
Def Leppard comes in off their third sold-out residency at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas. They've sold more than 110 million albums worldwide and pull in over 11 million monthly listeners on Spotify. Their latest Greatest Hits compilation topped four U.K. charts, which gives you a sense of the kind of set they're bringing to Charlotte.
Sharing the stage are the Goo Goo Dolls, fronted by John Rzeznik and Robby Takac in Buffalo, New York. They've built their following across hot AC, rock, alternative and pop, and they hold the all-time radio record for the most Top 10 singles. Their Diamond-certified hit "Iris" has gathered more than 6 billion global streams, with over a billion of those coming in 2025 alone. The Struts open the night.
